Sheriff Election — Ashley County, Arkansas
Ashley Sheriff · the arena · south Arkansas hires this desk in 2026 · in Hamburg · Little Rock remains the capital
The 2026 oval in Hamburg — not Crossett City Hall, not Louisiana
This page is the arena for this office. Unique teaching for the job lives on the office twin. The county as a place is taught at Ashley County.
It is not a campaign. Names belong on the official sample ballot. No crown.
This Sheriff is on the 2026 ballot. Arkansas county sheriffs sit on the gubernatorial table.
Hamburg hires a Sheriff who still holds Ashley 12 West

The Governor is 2026. That is not this oval. Nine Justices of the Peace sit — two-year desks, not this oval. A mill-town rumor does not hire this badge. Crossett is not the hall. Louisiana is a different sovereign. Little Rock is the capital.
Clerk work sits on Jefferson — not a Crossett mill clerk as this clerk
County Clerk work for Ashley County sits at the courthouse, 205 East Jefferson Street, Hamburg. Confirm the live Clerk and elections door on ashleycountyar.com before you drive. That is county clerk work — not Hamburg City Hall as this clerk, not Crossett City Hall as this clerk, not a mill office as this clerk. Confirm registration, sample ballot, and absentee on sos.arkansas.gov and voterview.ar-nova.org.
Sample ballot in Hamburg, not Union Parish
Do not take names from a Crossett rumor, a Monticello flyer, or a Louisiana postcard as this oval.

If a site and the official sample ballot disagree, the sample ballot wins.
What you are hiring — timber-county patrol and a Hamburg house
You are hiring the Sheriff of Ashley County, Arkansas — unincorporated patrol across Fountain Hill, Portland, Wilmot, and the timber outside Crossett; warrants; civil process; courthouse security at 205 East Jefferson; and the jail at 842 Ashley 12 West. You are not hiring Crossett Police. You are not hiring the Governor.
Read the office page for 842 Ashley 12 West as this jailer, Hamburg as the seat, Crossett as the mill town, and Little Rock as the capital.
Remedy when a writ misses Fountain Hill
A bad service or a paper that missed Fountain Hill or Portland — this Sheriff’s door and the courts. Nine Justices are not the internal-affairs substitute for a paper. Not a comment section. Not Crossett. Not Union Parish as this oval.
Relief when Bayou Bartholomew leaves the banks
High water on the bayou, a wreck on U.S. 82, a night road outside Wilmot — this county’s mutual aid first. Drew is a different count. Chicot is a different count. Crossett city hall is a different government. Louisiana is a different government.
Service — papers, a round courtroom, a night shift toward Crossett
Papers. A Hamburg courtroom. Night hours the office actually posts. 911 on an unincorporated timber road remains this badge. 842 Ashley 12 West remains this badge. ADC does not.
Due process does not wait for a mill-town rumor
A levy in unincorporated Ashley still needs notice. Confirmation of sale is still the court. The Constitution does not pause because a visitor photographed a mill.
Rights from Wilmot to the Drew line
Equal protection on the Louisiana-line map. Counsel. Property. Humane custody. A worker on Jefferson Street and a family in Crossett hire the same Sheriff.
